we need stranger things episodes done!
@@Warmfrozt working on it!
@@j2o2 would you consider covering Bad Batch series love the it to bits but i don't see much love for it anywhere ? Lots of love twords the work you put in , you're great .
@@ultimate_fanboy6891 I just don’t have time now and I don’t watch it myself, but I’m open to it in the future!
@@j2o2 please do consider it please !!!
A lot of people are getting it twisted... This wasn't Jar Jar Binks being redemmed... this was Star Wars making it up to Ahmed Best.
Exactly
PERIOD!
THIIIIIIS
Well... They kind of already did with the Star Wars gameshow, Jedi Temple Challenge.
THIIIIIIIS! FACTS!
This is NOT Ahmed's "redemption". He never needed to be redeemed.
So happy to see him here 😭💙💙
Ahmed never needed redeeming. If anyone did, it was the so-called 'fans' who made his life hell, and nearly drove him to suicide.
Vindication
The fandom should apologize Mr Best. He didn't deserve the hate he got and it's goofy that people say HE's the one getting a comeback. Nah, the fandom's just getting a second chance at putting things right. Give this man the respect he deserves.
Agreed. Actors never deserve the hate if their characters are bad (unless they act like a holes). They’re hired to do a job and they do it. Simple as that.
Absolutely.
I'll repeat what someone else said on another video: This is the FANS' redemption, not Ahmed's redemption. People were incredibly cruel to him to the point that he was suicidal for some time. This is a glorious comeback for him and he's finally getting the love and respect he deserves. Huge respect to whoever was involved in getting him for the role (my guess is Dave Filoni).
Amen. He was just doing his job playing Jar Jar, nobody else could have brought the character to life as he did, and he did not deserve the hate.
Yeah it was probably filoni
Too right!
Just goes to show, fandom toxicity persists no matter the era.
He deserves it and more
9:24 I don’t know why, but the “Like a Bantha” reference absolutely killed me
@@evesmith4020that aD what they were referencing dum dum
I must admit I was shocked to see Ahmed Best appear as Kelleran Beq here. He did such a wonderful job (as well as Carl Weathers for directing another kickass episode) and it was great seeing him return after receiving such heinous and despicable treatment back in the day and having his life spiral because of it. Though there's one thing I want to correct here. This isn't Ahmed being "redeemed," because he didn't do anything wrong in the first place that needed redemption. He was an actor who got the chance to be a part of one of the greatest franchises of all-time. A job and a dream come true for any actor...and because he portrayed a character nearly everyone despised, he was punished unjustly for it. For YEARS! So, for me, the toxic and horrendous parts of the fanbase are the ones that need the redemption here, and should treat this man with the love and respect he deserves. So here's hoping they do the right thing this time around. Sensational compilation as always Johnny!
Totally! He's not the one who should apologising for anything! And you could consider this a redemption on the fandom's/Lucasfilms side. So far was a great reception!
Facts
Thank you!! I disliked how they said it was his redemption arc
Yeah, he deserves so much more love and respect, and didn't deserve the hate he got just because he played an unlikable character. The poor guy even thought about committing suicide in the past because of the terrible treatment he received, if not attempted to. No one should have to go through that and feel that way.
@@kveld9893 lucasfilm?
My heart broke at that he’s my son part. Poor guy held it together for so long and was probably so worried. But he has to be nice to Din and Bo now for saving Ragnar.
Can someone please explain to me how a founding can have a Mandalorian dad?
@Anton Adelson mandalorians can still fuck.
@@AntonAdelson I believe it his actual son by blood
@@alejandrocarlino Didn't the explain in the first season that foundlings are orphans? Or am I not remembering correctly?
@@AntonAdelson he's probably lies that his son is an orphan
"Like a bantha"
Thank god for PWHustle. Seriously. I laughed for like 30 seconds straight there
I remember he fell out of his chair at the Luke reveal. I love his stuff.
He has the best reactions
He's so funny I love him
Bruh same. I laughed so hard at that.
Our first sight of Bo-Katan, he was like, "Who's that? It's a female. I know boobs when I see them."
I love how Bo Katan finally tells someone about the Mythosaur and she just goes "okay crazy whatever you say " 😂
It's like when people say they see a cryptid and have no proof
@@vulcranstorm2023 ah, a disco elysium reference?
Imagine the number of times a priest was told by his congregation they saw Jesus. Kind of the same feeling for the Armoror.
One does not speak unless one knows
I love the reaction to that as well.
This is one of the best things the SW creators have done to Ahmed Best.
He deserves all the apollogies from the fandom.
I like the guy screaming out of excitement @4:37 while his girl is freaked out and lost. 😃😃
The guy who said the Grogu flashback was disappointed followed by the guy who said it was God tier is a good indication about what Star Wars fans want.
Not everyone will be satisfied, but as long as the whole of the product is good, people will come back to it.
Honestly Dos Cavasos were the only reactors who didn't care for this episode. Very impatient, and also very much in the minority.
@@Rocket1377 I've seen a lot of complaints on this season in general though, people feeling like it's "filler", like it's not focused enough on Din. Meanwhile this might be my favourite season of this show so far. But this has always been the case in this fandom.
It really blew my mind when I learned who Kelleran was, glad to see him in another role in SW and people absolutely loving him. But I'll admit I thought we were going to see Mace Windu either was going to be there or would be seen somewhere in the background somewhere
Why would they only put him in the background?
@@jacktheflash8478 I meant like he wasn't the focus, you'd see him slipping away or something. Like he wouldn't be out there drawing more attention to himself
The only realistic way I'd see that happening is as a deepfake flashback or force ghost.
I was hyped af when I saw Carl Weather was the director. That man did a fantastic job!
“Is that Padme’s Ship”
“No it’s on Mustafar by now”
No it’s not Anakin’s still at the temple when he escapes with Grogu
Right, she doesn't leave until after Anakin returns from the temple.
Could be Senator Jar Jar Binks or perhaps Bail Organa
@@TajimaMunenori Wouldn't be Bail's, he has the Sundered Heart in Revenge of the Sith, not a Naboo cruiser. Jar-Jar is definitely the likeliest option
So much gratitude for all your work Johnny. I hope Ahmed Best sees this and gets to feel all this love from the Star Wars fandom. I cried seeing him in this role and my kids were so excited when I told him, who he is. Love you Ahmed Best!
I look forward to these react compilations as much as the actual Mandalorian eps 😂
Same here! 😁
This is the way...
@@jorgecabrera7539 HECK YEA!
Bruh same! More sometimes if it’s a really good episode.
Let Ahmed see all the reactions from people. He deserves all the love.
the last episode that Carl Weathers would ever direct, RIP Carl
I don't think the Armorer was gaslighting Bo. From her point of view, Bo was another Mandalorian that claimed seeing a real life Mythosaur. For her it's another "not the first, won't be the last" type of encounter. We, the audience, know Bo saw a real one. However, saying you saw something believed to be extinct and getting other people to believe you is very challenging.
Yup this, I've seen several people be upset that the Armorer didn't seem to believe Bo or dismissed her, but like if I walk up to someone and told them I'd seen a Stegosaurus I doubt anyone would believe me 🤣
Yeah, about that…
@@narendramartosudarmo6112 People change. Din's speech about their people being able to live in the sunlight again moved her. To retake Mandalore, they need much more then their Coven. Bo is the best candidate to unite all clans. 3 Episodes to go, who knows how things will play out?
9:24 Like a Bantha! I'm dead! 😂😂😂😂
3:47
That Look On Grogu's Face Breaks My Heart
+WestWard Media
The PTSD kicked in
@@thealjohnsonshow2188 He's Just So Sad.
@@westwardmedia9375 All the people who he trained with, or trained him, murdered in front of his eyes.
how he was gripping his blanket you know he was so scared poor kid
I recognized Ahmed when i saw him, but i didnt remember his name until i saw his name in the credits
That's funny it was the opposite to me - he looked familiar but I couldn't place him until I saw his name in the credits.
“feels a little bit like we’re getting the journey of bo katan instead of din djarin”
well. bo katan IS a mandalorian, and the show is called the mandalorian. just like how episodes are titled with THE but it ends up being about multiple people
This has been my interpretation too, The Mandalorian is whatever Mandalorian is on screen at the moment, Din just happened to be the only one we got to see when the season started. Also he's got a foundling to take care of now, he can't just race around space doing work now.
I feel like this show is called "The Mandalorian" not because of Mando but of Grogu's path to become an actual Mandalorian
The dude that said it was disappointing can kick rocks, this episode was great and seeing Ahmed Best was incredible, legit brought tears to my eyes.
My thoughts exactly! Him and his wife were really critical of this show's season, instead of just enjoying the show for what it is...
This is why I love this show. Filoni and Favreau, you mad men! You actually did it! What a god-tier tease!
The reactions of fans who know who Ahmed Best is is so satisfying. Their cheers for him are so incredible. He deserves all the accolades. Plus, the question is, is Kelleran still out there? 😮
I loved bo katan acting as grogu's Mando mommy. Idk if it's gonna be a ship but I love their parenting dynamic with him😂
the adventures of Dad Djarin and Mom-Katan 😂
I'm in love with this edits. The fans banter looks like a lit conversation
Legit cried for Ahmed’s scene.
5:50 I love the editing, looks like an actual conversation between them
Love how the OG's were excited to see Ahmed Best. Then there were the "am I supposed to know who that is?"😂😂😂
That's why I love this channel. U gave Ahmed Best the excitement and praise he deserved just like other characters. Other channels skimmed over it.
3:45-6:37 Definitely the main highlight
9:53-10:14 "Jurassic World" reference in a episode of "The Mandalorian" that is not directed by Bryce Dallas Howard
This was such a great episode, especially since we finally got more of Grogu's Order 66 flashback.
I like how every time you see the “directed by” screen the reactors know who that is and give them credit like it really tells me how much Star Wars fans care about who tells these stories
"That was disappointing." Nah, you're disappointing!
I just wish we could have gotten, "One does not speak unless one knows" in this. Great to know even The Creed says *don't be ignorant.*
When Ahmed appeared, I was thinking “he looks familiar do I know him?” Something about him felt familiar, I haven’t felt a presence like that since… Phantom Menace, it was till afterwards when I read his name in the credits I was like “wait…” welcome back Ahmed
I am so happy 😁
Mandalorians training, Grogu and Kelleran and now Grogu and Bo's new upgrade in their armor
It's the journey of the Mandalorian of f which Bo Katan, Boba Fett, and Grogu are. As well as the resurgence of the new era Mandalorian way.
Stories have been multifaceted throughout history, especially those that are set in an epic galaxy of characters and motivations.
Welcome back Ahmed Best, I hope we see more of his Jedi character and the (maybe slim) possibility of still being alive at this time.
Even though it's great to have people all enjoy Star Wars, it's still so satisfying when you have reactors that know the deep lore and get excited at details that you notice too.
Struggle Nation & PW Hustle be having me on the damn floor!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
“That kid has been devoured” 😂😂😂
Gungan-turned-human-Jedi-master saved Grogu from impending doom! Ahmed deserved only The Best after enduring much backlash!
Yeah, he never deserved any of that backlash. Separate the character from the actor/actress, people. If you don't like a character, then don't like the character, but don't blame it on the actor/actress.
@StargazerZ99 Jar-Jar Binks (doesn't matter if I got the name wrong) was annoying in the prequel trilogy, and the few times I saw him in the Clone Wars series.
But, did people back then really BLAME the actor Ahmed Best (hope I got his name right) for this character from Star Wars and MAKE HIM CLOSE TO COMMIT SUICIDE BACK THEN?!!!
What is wrong with these slimeballs!
@@JaimeD. You got both names right. And yeah, there was quite a bit of backlash when it came to Jar Jar when he first showed up in Episode 1, and Ahmed Best received a lot of death threats and such from fans, so much so that he contemplated suicide for years... I have no clue what's wrong with those disgusting people, but I'm glad Ahmed Best has a good role that's well-received by fans. Shame on the haters of the actor!
@StargazerZ99 Thank God almighty he never succumbed to it and looks to been doing okay in the present.
@@JaimeD. Agreed. I'm really glad he didn't commit, and seems to be doing much better nowadays~
Editing is on point as always. Amazing work, dude.
Everything in this episode was amazing, even though it was a bit short. So glad Ahmed Best got his time to shine again in this episode and I hope to see more of him in future star wars content.
Hell yeah. Always the best part of the day!
0:52 As a wise man said: *_"Size matters not"._*
“There are no others”
The weight of those words
"You gotta get on that thing and ride it, *like a bantha* "
🤣🤣
I love the two sides of people-are we supposed to know him? And…IS THAT AHMED BEST?!
"I've been inside a pterodactyl tummy, I'll never be the same."
Literally the best comment lmao. Those two dudes are always funny.
THANK YOU FOR THE ADD JDUB!!! And the Thumbnail!
This is the way!
"You about get humbled, Young Man."
"Yeah, You Little S**T!" 😅😅😅
I didn't realize it was Ahmed Best until the credits rolled when I first saw this episode! 🤣🤣🤣
What a way for him to redeem himself here after getting a lot of backlash playing Jar Jar in the Prequels!
Good for him! 🙂👏
But there's nothing to redeem, per say, since he didn't do anything wrong to begin with. This is the FANS' redemption, not Ahmed's redemption. its Ahmed's COMEBACK, to be more precise. Regardless, the man did nothing wrong for playing a character he didn't know people were going to hate. The poor guy went through so much crap for years after the first movie, and I'm glad he could be a part of the SW universe again with the role he was given in this episode; especially since the feedback is really positive~ He deserves love and respect, and I'm glad he's getting it at long last~
@StargazerZ99 that's what I'm saying dude!
As stargazer has already mentioned, he did no wrong to require redemption. He played Jar Jar Binks very well in his motion capture suit and voice acting. If some "fans" disliked the character at the time that's their choice, but to push the actor towards suicide, is uncalled for.
He is a talented actor and the Star Wars folks gave him another chance to shine in this role back in 2020 and now here in this series.
Certainly Not your fault the word "redemption" is being used incorrectly for this scenario, so this is being clarified on several fronts.
@@bazanime Yeah, some of the reactors use the word incorrectly in the video too. But I'm sure they mean well and meant "comeback" instead or something.
Also, what role in 2020 are you talking about exactly? I'm really curious.
@@StargazerZ99 The role of Kelleran Beq was from a kids' Star Wars adventure tv show, where contestants solved puzzles and other games. He was brought back to play that jedi and briefly his canon lore is that he is a Jedi that teaches younglings and cares for them. He is also good at the dual-wielding form.
06:30 AHMED BEST. I'm happy for him.😊
Another brilliant episode! Fantastic compilation once again bro'! Ahmed Best Dual Wielding those two sabres was a sight to behold!
9:25 “like a bantha” 😂😂😂
ITS A LITTLE TITTY PLATE 😂 she is always a treasure in the reactions
5:17 🎵Baby... On Board... Oh how I adore... 🎵
I'm glad that armored best got the opportunity to be a part of the Star Wars family again because I feel he didn't need to give no apology the way Hall fans mistreated him so much and I'm glad that he has come back now he's going to be a Jedi who is half responsible for keeping the kids safe originally
I really hope someone sends this to Ahmed Best.
9:31 the most british thing ive heard today
04:29 AHMED BEST! HERE ARE YOUR FLOWERS!!!💐🌹🌸🌺
“This Kid and giant monsters” 😀😀😀😀😀
Size matters not!😂
I was surprised none of the reactors said that.
Thank you, J2O, for the new react video for Episode 4. I enjoyed the flashback of Grogu's survival from Order 66, the Jedi "Saber Hand" who kept him safe, and observing how the covert goes on in their daily life as Mandalorians.
P.S: *You're about to get humbled, young man.* is what that kid got and then some soon. lol
9:54 who else yelled "circle of life b----!!!”
Carl Weathers directed
Thank You
🌹
07:56 Homie said "Move!".😂
Can we just appreciate how good it is to see live action clones again?
"coming this holiday season to Target" - Hector speaks the truth, iChuckle. i'm already gearing up for the special edition Grogu-Crest variant.
Considering you can buy Din's disruptor rifle.
Out of all the cool stuff that Tem Morrison has done as Jango, Boba, and the clones, he will never live down "like a bantha!" Lmao
At some point, I was shouting "Dracarys!"
this was my favorite episode
This is hands down one of the best episodes I've seen so far. Shout out once again to j-20 for This Magnificent episode forward to the next one
07:18 This is the way.
It's real interest to see Ahmed Best return, since he had such a bad time with Star Wars, at one time he legit considered "self-deletion".
I’ve never watched a single Star Wars movie or show but watching this makes me wanna watch the series
Have we considered Paz supported Din’s “Let’s get off this planet” speech because BOTH giant monster attacks nearly killed his kid lol.
Johnny, you are a National treasure
It's hilarious how the dudes are, "THAT'S AHMED BEST!!!", and the ladies are, "Who's Ahmed Best?" 😂😂😂
Awesome work man! It's a good day when you post. My Patreon money well spent.
He's clutching his little blankie!
Amazing reactions, I love how much of them are actual fans of not only main movies but animation series
I think when the Armourer said "This is the Way" she meant she's suppose to lead?
There’s a similarity between Din and Grogu when a part of their armour is being forged. When their armour is being forged by the Armourer and the banging of the armour it triggers their traumatic past.
Din is traumatised by the annihilation of his home and family.
While Grogu is greatly traumatised by his past of Order 66, and by the face Grogu was making is possibly the face of survivor’s guilt. As he believes he could of helped those who helped him escape, but he becomes fearful of his own power.
I love this little detail.
I love the parallel in Grogu getting flashbacks from the forge. Just like his daddy. Also, finally someone remembers to leave on the external beam pods for the LAAT!
My mind got blown when I found out who Kelleran was. Even my dad didn't know. I had to tell him.
“Please don’t spit out the helmet”
*dragon regurgitates*
“Oh nvm just the whole kid😂😂”
The name of this episodes compilation is perfect. Pretty much everyone who knew who he was shouted that exact same thing.
"A titty plate"! LMAO
She's not wrong. 😆
Flavor Flav's clock (if it was forged from beskar)
Filoni friggin LOVES hermit crabs apparently
Bo-Katan, mother of dragons.
YAAAAAAASSSSS!!! I’ve been waiting for this! Mahalo nui Braddah Jonny! 🤙🏾
Monster Bird vs the Hero Twins( an old Navajo story). Plus the fact that the covert hideout was filmed in Lake Powell (located on the Navajo reservation) and they even had a shot of Shiprock (landmark within the Navajo Nation). Hands down my favorite episode 🤓
A much better episode than the previous one (in my personal opinion).
All due respect to Lee Issac Chung (director of Minari), but I dug Carl Weathers and his direction better. Writing is still up for debate. I'm positive that Lee directed a great episode with "The Convert". I just personally wasn't feeling it.
I'm almost positive that this show will end with Grogu is going to be the title card character, and that this whole show is made to have a Mandalorian/Jedi hybrid.
The stuff with Bo-Katan is still interesting. I don't know her endgame, but I also don't know her mindset at the end of an episode. The Armorer is also mysterious. What does she know really???
Now, regarding the Ahmed Best cameo: it's very poetic that he once played a character fans HATED, and has returned to Star Wars to play a character fans will love. I'm proud of him, and I hope he sees the reaction online to him.
We now have 4 episodes left, and I really, really hope we get more meaty stuff as we approach the end of this season.
*This is the way*
04:43 Is he crying?😅
Lowkey... I'm wit you bro.
